<h4>Chapter 1445: An Unintentional Mistake?</h4> <h4><strong>Trantor: </strong>Henyee Trantions <strong>Editor: </strong>Henyee Trantions</h4>


    “You said that your family is in trouble and you came to Mr. Lu for help, but you keep mentioning that you used to be his ex-fiancee. Are you nning to use this to ask him to help you?”


    “Lu Bei, if you leave, I’ll tell the media that you abandoned me and the child in my stomach!”


    After the content of the video was released, the reporters were all in an uproar. Clearly, Wang Jiarou’s words and actions in the video werepletely brainless. Meanwhile, Lu Bei had a tight grip over the loopholes and refuted her sharply.


    More importantly, the two of them were not in a rtionship at all! This was simply Wang Jiarou’s one-sided scam!


    How could there be Lu Bei’s child in Wang Jiarou’s belly? It was all fabricated!


    !!


    The second video was even more infuriating. Wang Jiarou imed that she was here to seek investment and help, but she was not prepared at all. She did not even write a proposal. She ced all her hopes on Lu Bei’s sympathy. She did not put in any effort at all. It was simply disgusting!


    Not only did she not reflect on herself, but she also acted hypocritically and even went to the media with great fanfare. All these actions were extremely vicious and stupid!


    Before Lu Bei could say anything else, a reporter could not help but say, “Wang Jiarou, aren’t you a little too vicious? Where did your rtionship with Lu Beie from?”


    “All this talk about him getting you pregnant. How the hell did you get a baby? How suspicious!”


    “Wang Jiarou, Mr. Lu broke off the engagement with you five years ago, but you’re now provoking Lu Bei. It’s obvious what kind of woman you are! You caused all of us to be deceived. What a waste of our feelings!”


    “Wang Jiarou, it’s people like you who lead the world astray, causing some women who should be protected to be questioned instead. You’re not only bad for your image, but also for women everywhere!”


    Wang Jiarou did not expect this at all. She covered her face. She had never faced such a thing before. She screamed loudly, “I just wanted to help my father and my boyfriend. What’s wrong with that? I just wanted to seek help!


    “Why couldn’t Lu Bei help me? If I hadn’t left five years ago and I hadn’t married Mr. Lu, he wouldn’t have had such an opportunity. I just want him to repay me a little!”


    The reporter was even more disdainful. “So this woman is not only stupid but a giant baby. What obligation does anyone have to help you? Who are you to others? Do you think the whole world is your mother?”


    Lu Bei stood on the stage, still looking as calm as ever. He smiled and said, “When you left five years ago, no one forced you. It was you who chose your boyfriend and it was you who were unwilling to marry into the Lu family. Five years ago, when your family wanted to join hands with the Lu family through marriage, you took the initiative to send your photo to them. However, you didn’t even take responsibility after choosing to leave just like that. You even said that you gave him to me. But when you left, didn’t you leave for your own selfish reasons?”


    Wang Jiarou was speechless. She bit her lip tightly and looked pitiful.


    The reporters couldn’t helpshing out at her either.


    She yelled, “I have a boyfriend who loves me. The child is also my boyfriend’s. I’m just trying to help him find an investment opportunity. What’s so wrong with it? Why can’t I do it? Why can’t you all understand me?”


    “Heh, for the sake of your true love, you have to hurt others? Do you think that others have no feelings of their own? Why are you so shameless?” Lu Beiughed and said, “Or rather, do you think the entire world has to make way for you and listen to you?”


    At this point, no matter what Wang Jiarou said, no one would believe her.


    Zhang Yang was also very embarrassed. He had also mentally prepared himself for Wang Jiarou’s previous allegations to not be all true, but he did not expect the things she said to be so ridiculously fake.


    He immediately said, “Lu Bei, I’m really sorry. We didn’t expect Wang Jiarou to be such a person. Not a word of what she said can be trusted. On behalf of myself, the organization, and the brand of Scumbag Smashers, I sincerely apologize to you. I hope you can forgive me for my unintentional mistake.”


    His words were sincere and likable.


    Lu Bei’s noble but sharp gaze lingered on him, making Zhang Yang feel a little ufortable.


    Lu Bei said calmly, “An unintentional mistake?”


    “Yeah. We didn’t get a full picture of the situation because of our poor vetting, so…”


    Lu Bei snorted and nced at him from the corners of his eye. He sneered and said, “You sure know how to shirk responsibility! What do you mean by ‘unintentional mistake’? You were aware of Wang Jiarou’s ims before this. She didn’t have much credibility, but you insisted on causing trouble for me. In fact, you did it to gain poprity for your brand andpany. You’ve been posting articles against me for the past few days, and the number of readers is in the millions. You’ve gained hundreds of thousands of new fans because of me. With these dividends, you’ve gained both fame and fortune. Now you’re telling me that it was an unintentional mistake?”


    “Lu Bei, you’re really thinking too much. We’re really just a public service organization. We speak up for the weak and don’t charge any fees. We even helped Wang Jiarou pay for her amodation and inspection. Even if you me her, you can’t me me because I have a clear conscience!” Zhang Yang said righteously.


    His behavior made it difficult for the reporters to question him.


    Lu Bei ced his hands on the table. “If you’re really an organization that speaks up for the weak and this is really an unintentional mistake, then so be it. Unfortunately, you’re just using the so-called weak to attract attention and earn greater benefits. If I’m not wrong, the few victims you’ve helped recently went against celebrities. Weibo ounts and other media ounts have used those matters to attract millions of fans. Am I right?”


    “If fans want to pay attention to these matters, that’s normal. It means what I do is righteous!”


    Lu Bei retorted, “Righteous? Is that so? Then why did you contact Sister Qiao Mei and tell her that as long as I, Lu Bei, was willing to pay, you could help us settle this matter? If we didn’t pay, you’d be unforgiving!”


    The reporters were in an uproar and looked at Zhang Yang.


    “That’s because… I wanted to get child support fees andpensation for the money spent on Wang Jiarou. Also, although we’re doing this for the public welfare, we need a lot of manpower and resources. There has to be a source of money for this, right?” Zhang Yang stuttered a little, but he argued strongly.


    “So the advertising revenue, click revenue, and tip revenue from the various ounts you’ve opened isn’t enough to cover the bill for your manpower?”
